About Rare Rose Photography, LLC

Rare Rose Photography, LLC

Award-Winning Wedding & Engagement Photographer | Capital Region, Berkshires & Adirondacks

I’m Jennifer, the photographer behind Rare Rose Photography, an award-winning wedding and engagement photography business based in Altamont, NY. With 10 years of experience, I photograph weddings, elopements, micro weddings, engagements, and celebrations throughout the Capital Region, Berkshires, Adirondacks, and beyond. My style combines authentic storytelling with beautiful, thoughtfully composed imagery, capturing both the big moments and the little ones you might otherwise miss. I offer flexible, personalized coverage so you can build photography around your celebration.

I’m hands-on from planning through gallery delivery, with 24/7 communication, check-ins, curated photography timelines, and personalized prompts to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera. You’ll receive your full gallery of edited, usable images, with no small image-count limit. I offer payment plans, flexible hourly coverage, bridal portraits, rehearsal dinners, proposals, and extended wedding-weekend coverage. I’m attentive to the little things too, helping make sure you’ve eaten, had water, and feel cared for throughout your day. Fully insured; COI available upon request.

    Groom mom

    We hired Rare Rose Photography for our wedding and couldn't be happier with the results. From the moment we met the team, they understood what we wanted and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos came back with this beautiful, luminous quality that made every shot pop—the lighting and clarity are just stunning. They captured all the quiet moments between us and our families that we'll treasure forever. Their pricing is fair for the caliber of work they deliver, and honestly, the sneak peeks alone had us excited to see the full gallery. We'd recommend Rare Rose to anyone looking for a photographer who delivers gorgeous, bright images without the hefty price tag.


Absolutely. Flexible payment plans and multiple payment options (Venmo, Zelle, Stripe, installment agreements) are available for all packages. We believe quality photography shouldn't be a financial barrier. Let's work it out together.
I recommend booking 3–6 months in advance during peak season (May–October), especially for Saturdays. Off-season bookings (November–April) can be as short as 4–6 weeks. To secure your date, a $375 nonrefundable retainer is due at booking. The remaining balance can be paid in full before your wedding date, or we can set up a flexible payment plan. Sooner is always better, but I'll do my best to accommodate your timeline.
Yes. Second photographers are included on my Intimate, Classic, and Full Day packages. For Micro Mini and Mini packages, a second shooter can be added upon inquiry. It helps us capture every angle and ensures nothing gets missed.
Yes, every single image is professionally edited. I use Imagen AI with my signature editing styles (warm, airy, and authentic to your skin tones) to bring out the best in each shot. Editing is thoughtful and intentional, not overdone.
You'll get sneak peeks within 2–3 days of your wedding. Full gallery delivery depends on your package size: smaller sessions (Micro Mini, Mini) are edited within 3–4 weeks. Intimate and Classic packages take 4–6 weeks. Full Day or extended coverage (8+ hours) may take 6–8 weeks due to the volume of editing. I prioritize quality over speed—every image gets thoughtful, intentional editing.
Yes. I regularly shoot in the Berkshires, Adirondacks, upstate New York, and Vermont. Travel fees may apply for locations outside my core service areas (Albany, Adirondacks, Berkshires, Saratoga Springs). Let's chat about your location and I'll quote accordingly.
No problem. Custom hours are available at $375/hour. If none of my standard packages fit your vision perfectly, we can build something that works for you. Every wedding is different.
Yes. I carry professional liability insurance and maintain backup camera equipment. In the rare event I'm unable to shoot, I have trusted backup photographers ready to step in. Your day is covered.
Absolutely. During our pre-wedding consultation, we'll talk through your vision, must-have moments, and any specific requests. I love knowing what matters most to you so I can prioritize capturing it.
Yes! I offer 1–2 hour couples sessions perfect for honeymoons, engagement shoots, anniversaries, or elopement follow-ups. Couples vacationing in the Adirondacks, Berkshires, Vermont, and upstate NY book me for laid-back, authentic sessions—funny moments, real connection, no stiff posing. It's become one of my favorite offerings.
